Already Gone
What a stupid thing to ask
What do you want to be
Anything except the guy
Making a fool of me
Can't tell if self-inflicted
Or comes naturally
A crisis of meaning, hope
Or just plain apathy
You're a stray dog
In an elephant's disguise
A burning book of matches
With the element of surprise
And nothing I can say to you
Will get behind your eyes
You're going to be your own demise
You're going to be your own demise
And I know
Exactly
How I let it
Get this bad
But I can't even
Drive you mad
Empty out the chamber
You're just shooting in the dark
You remember how you got here
But you don't know where you are
Bet you didn't realize
It was going to get this hard
Relying on your little white lies
Isn't going to get you far
And everyone's a stranger
When you're so cold and withdrawn
Just wait until you see the truth
It's painted clear as dawn
I guess it doesn't matter now
If you still think I'm wrong
I'm already gone
I'm already gone
And you were right
About it all
About waking
Up alive
And you were
Such a precious
Thing you
Could deprive
And you were right
I agree
Now please
Take care of me
Before there's
Not much left to see
What do you want to be
Anything except the guy
Making a fool of me
Can't tell if self-inflicted
Or comes naturally
A crisis of meaning, hope
Or just plain apathy
You're a stray dog
In an elephant's disguise
A burning book of matches
With the element of surprise
And nothing I can say to you
Will get behind your eyes
You're going to be your own demise
You're going to be your own demise
And I know
Exactly
How I let it
Get this bad
But I can't even
Drive you mad
Empty out the chamber
You're just shooting in the dark
You remember how you got here
But you don't know where you are
Bet you didn't realize
It was going to get this hard
Relying on your little white lies
Isn't going to get you far
And everyone's a stranger
When you're so cold and withdrawn
Just wait until you see the truth
It's painted clear as dawn
I guess it doesn't matter now
If you still think I'm wrong
I'm already gone
I'm already gone
And you were right
About it all
About waking
Up alive
And you were
Such a precious
Thing you
Could deprive
And you were right
I agree
Now please
Take care of me
Before there's
Not much left to see
